them in dividends. Thus, for instance, supposing the amount of the Sinking Fund to be 5,000,0001., and the amount of Dividends paid to the public 55,000,0 . 001., a deduction should be made of 14 per Cent. to pay the Sinking Fund. This would have precisely the effect for which we contended, as it would im mediately 'relieve the other property of the country from the payment of taxes to the amount of 5,000,0001., now raised from it for the Fund which benefits nobody but the Stock-owner. A proposition of this sort would of course meet with strong opposition from the Fund-owners ; but it would be established on a principle founded on reason and justice, and as such would soon triumph over the objections which would be raised against it. In another part of our Paper will be found a letter from a Veterinary Surgeon, at Bristol, on whose opi nion, as to the injury occasioned to horses' feet, by Mr.,MAcADAm's . system of road-making, we made some remarks about a fortnight ago. It appears, how ever, by Mr. LEIGH'S account, that we were as sadly mistaken in our opinion respecting the merits of Mac adamisation, as ignorant of the delicate structure of the horse's foot ; and are referred for instruction on these matters to a. Course of Lectures at that forge of learning—the Veterinary College, where, probably M. LEIGH hammers out his oracular doctrines of" rhymes oh the road." Now, as to the evils of a rough road, compared to a smooth one, there can be no doubt; and we fully believe the truth of this Gentleman's expe rience, so far as sharp stones are injurious to horses' feet; but are Mr. MACADAM'S roads always com posed of sharp pointed triangular stones ? He might as well object to a tree being unfit for the Mast of a ship before its branches were lopped off, as cavil at the ruggedness of MACADAM'S road before it is smoothed down into use ! For our own part, we see no differ ence between Macadamisation, and the roads which are in use throughout the country. Mr. MACADAM has only introduced the country system into the towns, as being smoother, more durable, and more capable of repair, in infinitely less time. Will Mr. LEIGH insist that the texture of - the great roads throughout the country, is less injurious to horses' feet than MAC ADAM'S, when Once worked dOwn into consistency and smoothness ? It is manifestly unjust to argue upon a part of a plan, without taking a comprehensive view of the whole, with the ultimate effect result ing from its adoption. Mr. LEIGH admits that the obstruction to vehicles is lessened by the improved systent, and that horses travel with greater velo city, and yet he says that " there is infinitely more concussion produced on the elastic parts of the feet and joints" of horses, which is a contra diction in "terms. If the roads in the vicinity of Bristol are mismanaged, is it any argument against th e system generally ? A farmer might as well say, that because his crop failed, either from mismanage ment or natural causes, that the crop failed through- out the kingdom. So idle is it to suppose that all wisdom is confined to self, and all knowle dge acquired by partial experience in a limited sphere of action. We know as little of Mr. MACADAM personally, as of Mr. LEIGH, and advocate Macadamisation solely from its superior advantages. No person who is rocked along•the streets -of London in jolting vehicles, can see any thing deserving commendation in the present paving system; which is incomparably more injurious to- horses' feet, than that of Macadamisation, to say nothing of broken knees and the eternal break ing down of coaches and coal-waggons, which often occasions loss of life or limb to the pas sengers in our crowded streets, every second stone of Which rises up alternately in mutiny against its neighbour. But these things are managed better in Bristol, we presume, and Mr. LEIGH expresses a very natural sympathy for horses' feet, on the humane prin ciple that " A fellow-feeling makes us wondrous kind." We are sorry to announce that very painful .appre hensions ar e en t er t a i ne d f or the safety of his Majesty s acket Francis Fre e li ng , Capt. Frederick 'White.

But, by the Mary, which arrived here last night from thence, we learn that she had not been seen or heard of in those islands. —Guernsey Star, Sept. 12. SHIPPING INTiILIG ENCE.

CITY, Twelve o' Clock. The businesi in the English Funds has been rather of a limited nature since the opening this morning ; the first price of Console was '791 ; they soon after became a shade lower, and are now 79* I. In the foreign market, particularly Mexican Bonds, the transactions have been extremely large ; in consequence of the advertisement which appeared in the morning papers from the Mexican Charge d'Affaires, that the agency of the Mexican Go vernment had been transferred to the highly respectable establish ment of Messrs. Baring, Brothers, and that the dividend due in Oct., and those which may become due in future would be paid by those Gentlemen. This agreeable intelligence to the holders being known prior to the opening of the house for business, created much con fidence, and the first price of 6 per Cent. Bonds was 60 ; a subse quent re-action took place, and they were done at 58t, and have settled at 59} ; thus have all doubts upon the subject of the re gular payments of the dividends ended extremely satisfactory, and the credit of the Mexican Government appears to be fixed upon a solid foundation. The interest created by this intelligence has absorbed all the attention of speculators, and business in the other Securities has scarcely been attended to.

MANSION-HOUS E .--(Tans DA Y. ) Thomas Jackson, a dirty slovenly-looking man, with a black eye, was charged with creating a riot. Mr. Blenkarn, a respectable wharfinger, stated, that the prisoner was unhappily brother to his partner.— He seemed born to maintain the ancient and honour able order. of idleness; he thought it beneath him to attend any industrious or honourable avocation, and was one of those subjects frequently attached to the best families, on whom every service was thrown away. At last he was .taken into the service of the firm as a mes senger. He got drunk, fought with the men, and they were obliged to discharge him ; he then came on the wharf a ss an injured person, quarrelled with the other servants on the wharf, fought with one [of them, and beat him so severely that he was now in danger of his life. The LORD MAYOR remanded the prisoner until the man assaulted was out of danger. BOW-STREET---(Tula DA Y ). Eduard Jarvis Tollast was brought up for re-examina tion. He was charged a few days ago with an assault on a Miss Finlayson, the niece of a lady upwards of 60, whom he had lately married, and who was possessed of consi derable property.. Mi'ss Finlayson' had discovered that the prisoner had another wife living, and had informed her aunt of the fact. A rupture ensued between him and her aunt, and he endeavoured to remove some property be longing to the latter. Miss Finlayson interfered to pre vent him, and he struck her, and was brought to this dice to answer the assault, and had been detained on a charge of bigamy. . _ . _ _ It appearW(l, - however, on inquiry, that the prisoner had been a lover and fortune hunter by profession, and no less than five ladies had aspired to the honour of being loved and cherished by this " gay deceiver" of at least 45. The ladies were ranged in formidable array in the office, this Morning; and, if flattery be his fork, he had exercised great skill lathe selection of his dupes, who, it appeared, Were possessed of more property than charms. On enter ing the dock, however, the man who had displayed such generalship in conquering them singly, could not sustain their attack en masse, and shrunk from their gaze in sullenness, hiding his face (their unfortunate object of attraction) behind his handkerchief. Mr. Ma . chduff, who attended for Mrs. Whitehurst, the elderly lady, before mentioned, produced a certificate, to prove that in 1797, Edward Jervis had been married to RaChael Pierce, at St. George's, Hanover-square. Miss Finlayson proved having procured the certificate from the register of that church, in which she had read the entry. John Stratton, of No. 6, Mitford-street, Tottenham court-road, proved that he had known the prisoner four or five year by the name of .Tervis; he had lived in witness's house, with a woman who passed as Mrs. Jervis; he had seen her alive as lately as last Sunday week. Mr. HUMPHRIES, for the prisoner, contended that it would be requisite to prove that it was the same woman mentioned in the certificate. Mr. Mackduff replied that he had not had time enough to procure sufficient evidence of that fact, and made appli cation to Mr. Hulls, for more time. Mr. HALLS observed, ifit were only necessary to prove two marriages, there .were several wives present to do so. Mr. HumPaßlEs said, that if the first of those, alluded to, could not be proved to have been consummated at the time no former wife was living, it could not be considered a marriage in law, or in fact, and such evidence could not convict the prisoner of.bigamy. Sir H. BIRNIR observed, that he hardly knew what de signation could be given to such an inordinate appetite for wives. Mr. HALLS ultimately remanded the prisoner for a week, to give time for Mr. Mackduir to procure evidence of the first marriage. On the gate of the clock being opened, the prisoner made his escape front the public gaze with an alacrity which ex cited the risibility of nearly all present. N --- - S QUATIE:•-4THIS DAY).

Benjamin Robinson, aged 23, was indicted for stealing in the dwelling-house of Raikes Currey, Esq. eight table cloths, and two towels, value 14?. his property, on the 11 th of July last. Catherine Stanley, the housekeeper of the prosecutor, recollected her master's purchasing the property laid in the indictment, about the Bth of July ; she put them into her room ; was sure that the cloths produced, as found on the prisoner, were her master's. John Bawson saw the prisoner and another man go down the area of the prosecutor with an empty basket, on the 11th of July, and return again, having the basket full; he gave information thereof, in consequence of which the prisoner waa apprehended, and the property found on him. Verdict—Guilty. Catherine Harnley, aged 18, was indicted for stealing two table cloths and five napkins, the property of Lord Howard of Effingham ; and a gown and other articles, the property of Jane Chilcott, on the 20th July last. William Murphy, a servant to the prosecutor, went into the housekeeper's room on the 20th ; found the prisoner there; asked what she was doing; she replied, no harm, and let drop out of her apron the property mentioned in the indictment. She was quite a stranger in the house, and said she came down the area for victuals. The property was identified. Verdict—Guilty of stealing under the value of 40s. George Williams, aged 1.5, and William Arthur, aged 16, were indicted for breaking into and entering the dwelling house of John Brown, and stealing four pairs of stockings. The prosecutor stated that he lived at Kingsbury ; lie went out with his wife on the 20th of July last, locked his door, and gave the key to his wife; he remained himself about the place, and on returning to the house, found the door broken open and the prisoners within. On examining further, he discovered that a trunk had been broken open, and four pairs of stockings, which liad been therein, under the bed. The prisoners told him that they had gone in for water to drink.—The prisoners made no defence. The RECORDER told the Jury that the least removal of any goods, with an intention to steal, constituted a felony. Guilty.—Recommended to mercy on account of their youth. - MURDER. Richard Wells was indicted for having, on the 13th of June, while driving in a coach drawn by four horses, run against a gig in which the wife of Henry Farbridge was dip riding, whereby she was thrown out of the gig and the wheels of the coach passed over her head. She lingered until the.sth of July, and then expired. Mr. ANDiatiVs stated the case. The prisoner, he said, was the servant of Mr. Waterhonse, of the Swan and Two Necks, in Lad-lane; he had the character of a steady skilful coachman, but it was evident, notwithstanding this, that he was the cause of the death in question ; he was charged in the indictment with the crime of murder, and on s the Co roner's Inquest with that of _Manslaughter ; it was for the Jury to determine whether or not he was guilty of what the Grand Jury thought proper to present. There was one circumstance in favour of the prisoner, that he had sur rendered himself spontaneously for trial. He then called the following witnesses :•••-• Henry Farbridge was, on the night of the 30th of June, driving in a one-horse chaise, having his wife on one side, and his mother and a child sitting on a stool. He set mit from Barnet at nine o'clock in the afternoon towards Lou don. When he came to Barnet Church, be heard the sound of a horn, and the noise of a coach behind him ; he then made towards his own side of the road ; he came within three feet of the foot path ; there was sufficient room for a large' waggon to pass the other side, and, on looking behind, he saw the so near his wheel, that it was impossible for them to puss him ; he looked to• see if the coachman was pulling up, and observing lie was not, he endeavoured to get nearer to the near side, and imme diately the hind-wheel of the mail-coach struck against his gig ; his wife was thrown between the two wheels of the mail-coach, and he himself thrown under the hind wheel of the coach. It then stopped, and he found his wife apparently dead; he had not power to raise her • he . said to the coach man, " Yon villain, you ha ve been her; cause of this; pri soner replied, " It was no f au lt Of mi ne ; I blew the horn, " and you ought to get out of the way." The prisoner then said, " That there was no room to pass ;" witness said, " There was always room for another coach; there.were at that time six or seven feet to spare for the mail to pass ;" he measured it since, and found it to be so ; his wife was then taken to a house, a nd witness asked the coachman foi• his address, which, after considerable reluc tance, prisoner gave; it was on level ground, and witness was driving at the rate of seven or eight miles an hour,. it was as light as day ; his wife was brought home after hav ing remained there eleven days, and died. Cross-examined by Mr. Bnobtatot—He had taken a little Wine and water, and some ,ale, previous to hi s start ing froM Barnet; ' urgeon Morris attended his wife a t Barnet, who said that it was dangerous to remove his wife home, but said she would die, and that she might as well die at home as at Barnet. John Robinson, a farl6r at Barnet, was walking from market on the evening in question; saw the mail strike the gig, he was b e hind; saw the woman al most imme diately unde r th e w h ee l of the coach; the coa c h man h a d made no effort to stop the coach previo us to t h e ma il striking the gig. Witness knew that th e ma il wou ld strike the g i g , f rom t h e li ne it war going in ; there was plenty of room for the mail to pass without coming aril, inst the gig; could not swear that he had heard the horn ; the prosecutor was very near his proper side at the time. Cross-ex a mi ne d b y M r . BnonEatcK—The mail sto p pe d directly th e acc id ent h appene d ; he went to stop the gig horse, and cou ld lying, vat see in what position th e woman was Siirgeon Morris examined by Mr. ANDREWS —Attended the deceased after the accident; there were three fractures in her lower jaw, the collar-bone broken ; she had diffi. culty of breathing ; was sensible, but could not speak ; he attended her after she had been brought to London ; she died on the sth of July of inflammation in the lungs, pro duced by external bruises on the chest. Cross-examined by Mr. BRODERICIC—The inflamma tion commenced at the time of the injury; did not ima gine that there was any danger in removing her, as her case was desperate, and there was no prospect of her re- covert'. This was the ease for the prosecution. Th e prisoner being railed on for his defence, said, thai he (lid all that was in his Tower to avoid, the accident, and that he was by no means in fault. Mr. Farbridge was again called by. Mr. BRODERICK— Was not aware that on hearing the horn he had pulled a little to the right ; had considerable experience in driving. George Christopher. Hudson, a post-master at Barnet, saw the prosecutor driving lit the gig on the day in ques tion. Thought he drove like a person unaccustomed to driving. Cross-examined by Mr. ANDREWS—The road was '24 feet wide at the place where the accident occurred. By Mr. BuomiticK—Knew the prisoner thirty years— had always the character of a good coachman. Edward Bans was' guard to the mail on the night in question. On seeing the gig, he blew the horn, and the coachman hallowed—the four horses and the fore wheels of the Mail passed the gig, and stopped a minute. The hotses gibed back, and the step struck the gig—where the leaders and the splinter-bar pass, they consider that the entire coach will pass. Cross-examined by Mr. ANDREWS—The step was down when the accident occurred. The cause of the accident was the chaise coming against the mail ; did not believe that there were six feet beyond the mail, but thought there were three • the mail should have passed, were it not for the backing Of the gig . ; witness did not appear at the Coroner's Inquest, not being summoned ; the time allowed to the coach from South Mims to London (a distance of 15 miles) was one hour and 45 minutes. Elizabeth King witnessed the accident from her own door, a distance of ten yards; saw Mr. Farbridge on the wrong side of the road before the horn blew, and then crossing to the right side, and pulling the wrong rein; it was the pulling of the wrong rein that caused the acci dent; the deceased was removed td witness's house, and was getting better when she was removed. Cross-examined by Mr. ANDREWS.--She heard Mr.' Jarvis cry out to Mr. Farbridge to come to his own side of the road; meant to swear that the prosecutor had been on the wrong side of the road; no person applied to her before yesterday to give evidence ; it was at Mr. Hurmer's solicitation that she appeared. Sophia Betty lived exactly opposite where the accident happened; was standing in the window when she heard the horn; she saw the gig as much on the right side as it could be, as there was an iron,railing which separated the Church-yard from the road; when the horses and the fore wheels of the mail had passed the gig, the gig drew back, and came in contact with the hind wheels ; if it had gone on straight, nothing could have occurred; she attributed the accident to the unskillfulness of Mr. Farbridge. Cross-examined by Mr. ANDREWS—Mr. Farbridge was on his own side of the road all along. James Clarke witnessed the accident, was about thirty yards off at the time; when the horses and the front of the mail had passed the gig, Mr. Farbridge pulled the wrong rein, and put the gig back on the mail. By Mr. ANDREWS—If the gig would have gone straight forward, the mail would have passed within a foot of it; there was not a yard to the right of the mail at the time. John Clay came up after the accident ; there was only the length of his foot between the fore wheel of the pail and the post; the road was 22 feet wide only, in that place. By Mr. ANDREWS—Three carriages could pass a-breast on the road; Mr. Farbridge was in the middle at the time; did not know any thing about Mr. Farbridge, he was by all accounts, blowing the coachman up. Several witnesses gave the prisoner a good character. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE in summing up, observed, that there were not sufficient grounds to charge the pritioner with murder, as it did not appear that the accident had arisen from wanton or furious driving; but if the Jury were of opinion that it was caused by the carelessness or - negli gence of the prisoner, they would find him guilty of Man slaughter; or if they thought it was the result of pure acci dent, they would acquit him. The evidence was so con tradictory, that it was difficult to come to a satisfactory conclusion. The Jury having deliberated for a few minutes, brought a verdict of—Not Guilty. ANOTHER MURDER. Isaac Bateman, aged 36, was indicted for the wilful nmrder of Sarah Bateman, his wife, by kicking and beat ing her. Mary Hughes examined by Mr. Justice GAZICLEK— Knee; the prisoner and his wife, they lived at the Old Greyhound public-house, in Fulham, within 150 yards of witness's residence; nobody lived in the house with them; prisoner was a labourer in the market-gardens ; his wife worked along, with him ; at twelve o'clock at night wit ness heard a violent noise, like the breaking of crockery ; she supposed that it• came from the Old Greyhound, in consequence of which, she went to about twelve yards of the prisoner's house, and heard a groan. She went to the house, and met the prisoner at the door. She said, I say Bateman, you have murdered your wife, you thief, you have murdered your wife; three times she said so—He said no, he had not hurt her. Witness alarmed the neighbour hood,und cried out murder—He said she was not m urdered, it was only gin or gin and water she wanted, and water he would give her—he went to the pump in the yard, and in his hand--she saw him no more—the pan took a pan was found in a ditch afterwards—she stopped there about ten minutes, the neighbours collected in consequence of her screaming. . . . _ Sever;il persons went in ; witness remained outside, and saw the deceased in the lower room, while the women were washing her; witness went home and staid there until her brother came with the doctor; she returned with the doctor, who desired that the deceased should be taken up stairs,and stripped,and put to bed; the doctor examined her, and asked if she had been g u ilty w ith an y p erson . f!. Justice GASELEL—I must not hear that. She did not know how the parties lived together. Cross-examined. by Mr. BRODERICK—The evening was dark, and there were no lamps, but she could see the face of the prisoner. Johu Bowling, lives in Hammersmith ; on the 31st of July, they sent for him to his own house; saw the de ceased on Tuesday morning, about ten o'clock, her face was very much bruised, her left eye black, and nearly closed, there was a cut over the right eye, and another on the side of her head; she complained of a good deal of pain all over the belly, and all round the heart, and upon examination, he found it to be a case of danger, us there was a rupture of the bladder, be. thought there was almost a certainty of its being fatal; the deceased, on being , informed of the rupture,.. said, that she thought there was great pain, and that she should not be here long. Witness was not quite certain at that time that it would prove fatal ; thought it very dangerous, but not hopeless; de ceased, in his opinion, considered'hersdf in danger of death; it turned out in point of fact that the bladder was ruptured. CrOss-examined hy, Mr... Baotmittex.r—Said nothing more about the bladder, than, " I think your bladder is ruptured." Mr. JustieeGAZELEE.—The wounds which he described were by a bludgeon ; thought the cut on the bead had been from a fall; the ruptureof the bladder was occasioned she was taken to • St. George's Hospi btayi some o Tuesdays violence; at his recommendation. Mr, TIRODE.RICK... , A fall or any violence would cause a nipture,. if the bladder was much distended : fall ing upon a chair or is tub .would do it; the habit of in toxication produces aweakness that facilitates a rupture.

One of them was tipsy; is not sure which. Saw the pri soner put his hand into Fay's pocket, and upon 'witness's' observing it, the prisoner withdrew his hand.

Witness did so, and Fay produced a bag containing some money. Witness denied having stolen any of it.

The Jury, after a short consultation, found him Not Fay requested the Judge to allow him his expenees, hut was refused. Thomas Hughes was indicted for stealing on the 16th August last one sovereign belonging to Mr. Ed war d Lon don Rodick. .Verdict—G;i/ty,but recommended to mercy. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.
